🇮🇱🇱🇧 Israel is now openly calling it the "Gaza model" in Lebanon 2,600 dead, over a million displaced, dozens of towns near the southern border completely flattened. A several-mile-deep buffer zone Israel says it plans to permanently occupy. Deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure at this scale, paired with mass displacement, is the definition of what war crimes tribunals were built for. The part that makes this different from Gaza is the explicit admission… Israeli officials aren't hiding the playbook. Source: NYT

Basically every Israel-Palestine debate goes like this: "Israel did X." "Yeah, because the Palestinians did Y." "Yeah, because Israel did Z." "Yeah but only because the Arabs did A." But if you bring the debate back far enough in time, eventually you get to the part where the western world forcibly dropped a brand new ethnostate on top of a pre-existing civilization without the permission of — and to the extreme detriment of — the people who were already living there. Sure you can go further back and say "Oh yeah well the Jews lived there thousands of years ago," but that's just silly. There's no valid reason to believe some Jewish guy in New York City even has any meaningful lineage connecting him to that land more strongly than any random Muslim in Turkey or wherever, and even if there was, it would still be absurd to cite ancient history as the basis for a territorial claim. I'm only a few generations removed from my ancestry in Ireland and Scotland, but it would be ridiculous for me to show up demanding the home of someone who lives there. So the original source for the grievance is clearly the artificial creation of an ethnonationalist state in the mid-20th century, and the push by Zionists and western imperialists to make it happen. And how has that decision worked out? You see the results before you. Generations of nonstop violence and abuse, culminating in the slaughter and chaos throughout the middle east today. This means that creating Israel was a mistake. A mistake that needs to be corrected. Zionists will collapse into a shrieking pile of vitriol and hyperbole when you say this, claiming you're calling for the extermination of Jews, but this is false. Certainly ending a national order premised on putting the interests of Jews before Palestinians and righting the wrongs of the past would inconvenience a lot of the Jewish people who've been living there, but there's no basis for the claim that it would entail their deaths. Apartheid South Africa was dismantled without the extermination of millions of white people, and there's no reason to believe the dismantling of apartheid Israel would entail the extermination of Jews. The Israel experiment has been tried, and it has failed. It is time to try something else.

Obama donated NONE of his salary. Michelle had a staff of 23. Trump donates ALL of his salary. Melania has a staff of 4. In life there are givers and there are takers.

@ProudSocialist @YourAnonNews Tell me you really don’t know how much money goes to Isreal and how much of said money is pumped back into the US economy. Oh yeah you just did.

All Democrats have to do to win elections is stop fighting for the genocidal state of Israel and start fighting for Medicare for all. The problem is they won’t do it because the party is owned by the Israeli lobby and the insurance lobby. Many of us realized this years ago and are waiting for folks to catch up so we can build an alternative.

Israel has killed more than 2,500 people in Lebanon since March 2, and the world is silent! Don’t stop talking about Lebanon.

Dear Americans, Iran does not have the missile range to strike your country; if an attack occurs, it would most likely be carried out by your own GOVERNMENT or ISRAEL.

"What is 'Palestine'?" Pathetic Ramsey Aburdene (PNN) is back targeting Jews at a Shell gas station in Beverly Hills. One guy in the car: “Hey asshole… you gonna have a fucking problem?” No one’s scared. No one’s debating. Jews aren’t backing down in their own city. Deal with it. 🇮🇱 One of these days he is going to meet the wrong Jew.

@CCHockeyNews Sounds like an ASU problem in how they distribute NIL money. The smaller schools are figuring it out.

One reason ASU players are flooding the transfer portal this spring is money. Unlike other NCHC schools, ASU allocates no rev-share cash to hockey: “We are often up against teams with payrolls of $1M+, when ours has been just north of $100k, entirely fundraised by myself.”

ASU hockey’s roster overhaul is partially illustrative of economic challenges that Greg Powers recently addressed in a meeting with boosters. Detailed look at ASU’s roster departures, likely additions and a window into Powers’ optimism for the future: 247sports.com/college/arizon…

@jawwatts @CCHockeyNews Yep, giving him an extension through 2030, and literally naming the endowed Coaching position after him was a terrible idea.

@JPAmann @CCHockeyNews At the beginning of 25-26, GP was bragging that his high end talent was going to dominate the conference. Now he cannot fall back on that, so it’s back to the blame game. Unfortunately, it will take 5 losing seasons for ASU to wake up.

@CCHockeyNews They should also maybe realize Powers is not the answer either....He can't just pass the blame every year.

Just arrived in DC from Denver. Now, I’m heading to Indiana. Then, Virginia. Then, Arizona. Then, Idaho. Then, Alaska. Then, Texas. Working my body to its breaking point, but I refuse to stop. Doing all of this, while exposing illegal aliens on the voter rolls.

@BernieSanders Why don’t you give the exact amount Americans send Israel compared to what we send everyone else. Also please in context tell the people what Israel must do with money we give them. So much to say without saying the truth.

This week, I will be forcing a vote to block nearly $500 million in bombs and bulldozers to Israel.  Enough is enough. U.S. taxpayers must not keep funding the Netanyahu government’s mass killing and displacement of civilians in Gaza, Iran and Lebanon.

@NiohBerg There's plenty of Americans who do go over to Iran and visit and live. There's Jews there, there's Christians there - while they do have a horrible regime; so does the USA. In fact the US regime has killed more people than the Iranian regime. Go figure.
